I am using Internet Explorer 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519.

I have turned off McAfee Security Center, I have set my Internet Security
Setting to Medium (IE will not let me set to Low).

I have set all Active-X and Scripting to Prompt rather than Deny.

I have added Adobe.com to my list of safe sites to allow cookies.

I have set my Po-up blocker to allow pop-up from secure sites, and have even
turned it off.

I still do not see the Install button on the following page.

thorware

How can I install this as I need it for an online course in Retirement
Planning.

The direct URL for the Authorware player is:

Thank you for the response.
I used the direct URL and installed Shockwave_Installer_Slim.exe.

However, when I try to access the online course, I stll get the message saying
The Authorware 7 WebPlayer is not installed.

Is there a difference between the Shockwave and the Authorware 7 WebPlayer?

How do I get the WebPlayer to be recognized by Internet Explorer?

Shockwave and Authorware player are two different things. But that's about
-all- I know about Authorware player. You'd get better results posting to the
Authorware forum.

Thank you for your help.

I ended up going to my old notebook computer and logging on to the educational
site and again being redirected to load Authorware Webplayer.

Voila!!

I now had the "Install Now" button, so I hovered the mouse pointer over the
button and wrote down the address shown on the status bar.

Manually entering the address bar into my desktop, I hit <Enter> and I was
downloading ShockwaveAuthorware Web Player!!

For anyone who needs the Webplayer, the direct link to this is:
